No Family is Perfect (for sure)

Valerie Stiehl: I AGREE.. WE INCARNATE INTO OUR FAMILIES TO LEARN FROM THEM AND TEACH THEM. BLESSINGS.

Ron Alexander: “In families there are no crimes beyond forgiveness.” Pat Conroy from Prince of Tides
Evelyn Leonard Wright I believe there are times when family members are just best left...no animosity, just an understanding that they have their path and we have ours...Sometimes, we come into a family just because the genetics "fit" the blueprints for our lives...It is amazing to me how folks from the same family can be so very different...and it's all good. And there are times when we "call" to us the family we have the beauty of choosing...and those are most special to us
 
Ron Alexander Beautifully said Evelyn Leonard Wright, thanks. I have come up with an analogy that works for me here. In my guided Loving Kindness Meditation, there is a bit about if one cannot get over the anger, at least "neutralize" the relationship. In other words take the "charge' off of it. Looking at it from a quantum perspective, one can think of the atom with the positively charged electrons and the negatively charged protons then the uncharged much larger neutron in the middle. Equanimity is taking the neutral path between the charged ones! Or taking the "Middle Path" between the charged ones. What do you think!
